Kingston Voluntary Action Health and Wellbeing Network Event

Bimla Tamang from the London IHCAS team, was delighted to attend the Health and Wellbeing network event organised by Kingston Voluntary Action (KVC) on the 18th July.

Julia Travers, Director of Commissioning at Kingston CCG attended the event and provided an update on the Health and Care Plan for the borough - for children, adults and Elderlies as well as carers. Tulloch Kempe from Age Concern Kingston provided an update on Kingston Coordinated Care.

Bimla said 'The event provided a great opportunity for me to introduce POhWER and also connect with other organisations staff members'. 'Ruth, a staff member from the Kanoom charity was also present at the event and have invited POhWER to speak to the Korean community as she believes the Korean community are unaware of POhWER's services in the borough'.
